This is the kind of hole-in-the-wall spot I love to find! I have had my eye on the raving tenderloin reviews for this place for over a year. My wife suggested that we make the 2.5 hour drive for Valentines Day today to finally give it a try. Absolutely outstanding! Gigantic tenderloin, well seasoned, good thickness, and still juicy. I chose the option to have it cut into sliders served on Hawaiian rolls, and they toasted the whole thing! This was the Big Boy Tenderloin, comes with waffle fries for $19.50 and I upgraded to the slider rolls for an extra $3. I only finished 1/3 of it and brought the rest home. Tons of other great options on the menu and huge portions (the order of pulled pork nachos in the photo is only a half order). Long drive but completely worth it!

They were somehow able to accommodate our party of nine with very little notice. The staff was top-notch. For appetizers we had fried pickles, fried green beans, and onion rings. All were excellent. Members of our party had the smash burger, BLT, Philly cheese steak, ark salad, and pineapple barbecue burger. Everyone loved their food. Now for the tenderloin... I have tried many tenderloins all over the Midwest. This is definitely one of my favorites. It checks all the boxes for me. Flavor, Crunch, Tender, Moist, Thickness, & Size. My tenderloin was 2.09 lbs and his was 2.07 lbs. Neither one of us could come close to finishing it. I would highly recommend this place. My family and I are already talking about our next visit.
